How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 23 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 61 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.41 for the level played (Rep Div 1 10 · Club 35). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 45 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 21 catches + 4 run outs (4 direct, 0 assisted) in 107 matches — 0.23 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 55 innings at 13.8 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 124 wickets in 94 matches bowled in (of 107 played) — 1.32 per match at 17.6, economy 4.04, strike rate 26.1.
